3. Recruitment Impact
The Knights went in hard for a rep regular second rower in the form of Tyson Frizell. The 29 year-old brings with 177 games of NRL experience as well as a stack of rep jerseys at both NSW and international level.
His arrival more than makes up for the loss of Aidan Guerra, who retires. Sauaso Sue and Jack Johns should both see plenty of regular first grade in 2021.
Ese'ese and Mata'utia are big outs, however neither would be absolute locks in the current Knights set up. McCullough filled in for the Knights nicely but leaves the club after his short stint.
The output of Tyson Frizell will completely dictate the result of the Knights recruitment. If he stars then Newcastle have smashed this out of the park. If not, then I can't see any of the other ins making a huge impression right away.
